The DGO Congress of Central and East European Studies (ceecon26) co-hosted by ZOiS
The deadline for submissions in all categories is January 15, 2026!
On 8 and 9 October 2026, the German Association for East European Studies (DGO), the Freie Universität Berlin (FU) and the Centre for East European and International Studies (ZOiS) will jointly host the third Congress of Central and East European Studies (ceecon26) in Berlin.
ceecon is the largest multidisciplinary congress on Central and Eastern Europe in the German-speaking realm. It was established in 2022 as a cooperative project of the DGO and the Freie Universität’s Institute for East European Studies (Osteuropa-Institut).
ceecon provides the international research community with an important forum for exchanging and discussing the latest research findings on the region. The congress spotlights scholarly work on the Baltic States, Central and Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus, and Central Asia.
Academic exchange on topics relevant to all scholars in the field will take place in plenary sessions. Parallel sections will address research questions concerning a broad variety of topics and methodological approaches. ceecon also offers space for the presentation of research projects and round tables on special issues. We especially encourage young researches to participate in the congress.
